I posted a Question for you on the "Now i want Radar" thread. I was asking if you are still willing to help skipper my boat.
I started a wish list , (things ill get, but probably wont have the first year of tuna fishing) as well as a list of the things i will have for sure.
You were kind enough to offer the help me , i want to make sure you know what you are getting into. to make sure you still want to help.. id p.

Hell, ID, if bait boy can't help you, I can. I have rods and gear for tuna. We can go in my boat if you can't get yours down. I am somewhat range limited to about 50 miles though.

I'm sure Rick will accomidate you. He'll do about anything for a ride to Tuna Town.
Look around, I found my radar for $700.
Good luck,

Sorry, it took so long to reply. YES!!!!!

Ive been out in all kinds of tubs and if you have half of what these guys have (OK maybe more than half)you are more than seaworthy.

Most of the time we travel in packs and know what the weather looks like. those are the keys to having a great day. because you know your boat is in tip top condition and you have enought gas to choke a horse.

My requirements for a boat that is capable of doing this is.

A: boat floats and does not leak.
B: If water comes into said boat it has a way to leave without me bailing it with a 5 gallon bucket.
C: Compass
D: in this day and age a GPS is a must..
E: VHF radio.
F: someplace to put the dead fish. Preferably cold.
G: life jackets flares and all required things.

I'm easy going and have been on some vessels that are less than the best and still managed to have a good time.

best wishes and I'll see ya fer TUNA Town
